ROOT'S AUTOMATIC 8-FRAMB HONEY-EXTRACTOR CONNECTED TO RUN WITH A SMALI, 



GASOLINE-ENGINE 



The long-wished-for practical Automatic Reversing Extractor has at last been found. The Root Automatic solves the question com- 

 pletely. No complicated mechanism; it is simplicity itself. All orders for 4-frame Cowan or larger will be fitted with the Root Automatic at 

 the regular price of the Cowan. 



When a bee-keeper has a large amount of extracting to do, requiring a large machine, an Engine for running the Extractor is almost a 

 necessity. To furnish power in such cases we are prepared to supply a small Gasoline Engine, specially built for this work. If you are inter- 

 ested write for complete description and price.
